Criminal Defense
MALE CLIENT IN LOS ANGELES, AIRPORT COURTHOUSE (LAX), JULY 2014.
Our client was a college student at UCLA. He and a fellow student were arrested for felony arson of a residential building. He was also charged with arson of personal property, setting fire in a public sidewalk and vandalism. The bail amount was too great for his family to bail him out. We began working on the case immediately. We were able to get him released from jail on his own recognizance. We contacted the District Attorney’s Office and the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office.
Result: All felony charges DISMISSED. Place on misdemeanor summary probation for lighting a fire on a public sidewalk.
